InStep Run Around LTD Jogging Stroller

Pros
  • Inexpensive
  • One-handed fold
  • Sturdy
Cons
  • Heavy
  • Seat lacks cushioning

The InStep Run Around LTD stroller has been discontinued. For an inexpensive jogging stroller, the InStep Run Around LTD Jogging Stroller gets good marks in several professional reviews. Parents at Amazon.com generally agree, praising the sturdiness and durability of this stroller, which rides well over pavement, grass and gravel. The general consensus is that this is a decent stroller, especially for the price, but nothing exceptional. Those who don't like the stroller cite a lack of cushioning in the seat and note that the harness seems harder to adjust than on other strollers. The InStep Run Around LTD has a fixed front wheel, but reviewers recommend this inexpensive model for power walking, rather than running. It's a bit heavy at 29 pounds, and it can carry children weighing up to 50 pounds. For serious runners, reviewers like the BOB Ironman (*Est. $350), which is significantly more expensive but boasts a higher weight limit of 70 pounds and better durability.

"Baby Bargains" provides only a brief review of the InStep Run Around LTD Jogging Stroller, but the coverage of stroller brands is hard to beat. Not only do the authors give each brand a rating, their in-depth discussion of each brand's strengths and weaknesses is valuable. We also found a good number of owner-written reviews on Amazon.com, including several detailed reviews on the pros and cons of this jogging stroller.
